Atlanto-axial rotary fixation

T. Featherstone R. Tayar and M. K. Palmer

X-ray Department, St Helier Hospital, Carshalton, Surrey SM5 1AA

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

We read with interest the paper by Moss et al (1989) on the diagnosis of atlanto-axial rotary fixation by functional computed tomography (CT). We have recently seen two young adults with resistant torticollis but no neurological symptoms following minor neck trauma. Routine antero-posterior, open-mouth, upper cervical spine radiographs revealed some asymmetry of Cl on C2, and subsequent CT of both patients confirmed the presence of atlanto-axial rotary fixation.

Received for publication August 1, 1989.
